Preview: Van Helsing: Hell to Pay

Van Helsing: Hell to Pay preview. Liesel Van Helsing and Julie Jeckyll are back from Neverland but very far from home #comics #comicbooks

[t4t-apexeclipse]

now it’s a matter of choosing a new book

im caught between the odyssey, the strange case of dr jeckyll and mr hyde, and for the roses by julie garwood

for the roses is summarized thusly:

“No one ever knew what kind of strays, from animals to weary travelers, Mary Rose Clayborne would bring home next. Sometimes her four brothers — runaway slave Adam, ex-pickpocket Douglas, gun-slinger Cole, and con man Travis — wondered whether her boarding school education did a lick of good now that their beautiful, impulsive little sister was back in Blue Belle, Montana.

Of course, everyone in town knew better than to mess with the Claybornes. The brothers, four of the toughest hombres in the West, had once been a mismatched gang of street urchins. But they had found an abandoned baby girl in a New York City alley, named her Mary Rose, headed West, and raised her to be a lady. Through the years the Claybornes had become a family, held together by loyalty and love if not by blood — when they suddenly faced the crisis that could tear them apart.”

like hello??? that’s so intriguing????

it’s a decent size book, 496 pages in all, and might take me a while to read

then there’s the odyssey. im a pjo kid so im very interested in greek mythology!! and im so curious as to what makes this such a classic. it’s a shorter read, so not as overwhelming, with 298 pages

and dr jeckyll and mr hyde is another classic, and id love to read the origin of so many stories inspired by it!! it’s also a fairly short read, the shortest of these three with 169 pages and fairly large text, i could probably read it in a couple days

i cant make a decision to save my life lmao

[farfromormond]

8 PEOPLE I’D LIKE TO KNOW BETTER !!

( repost, don’t reblog. )

ONE ( NAME / ALIAS ):  Marie TWO ( BIRTHDAY ):  July 30th THREE ( ZODIAC SIGN ): Leo FOUR ( HEIGHT ):  5′7 FIVE ( HOBBIES ):   painting, reading, writing, cosplay, sewing, makeup. SIX ( FAVOURITE COLOUR(S) ):  burgundy, emerald green, midnight blue, gold, mustard yellow, silver  SEVEN ( FAVOURITE BOOKS ):  The Strange Case of Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde, Letters between Gentlemen by Professor Elemental and Mooj, The Thrilling Adventures of Lovelace and Babbage, Illusionarium by Heather Dixon Wallwork EIGHT ( LAST SONG LISTENED TO: ): Don’t Stop me Now by Queen NINE ( LAST FILM WATCHED ):  I think I rewatched April and the Extraordinary World last? TEN ( INSPIRATION FOR MUSE ): Mmmm it depends on the muse so much. Sometimes it’s aspirational - I’m in a bad headspace so I look to Carlotta or Lily for guidance, sometimes it’s petty revenge and I get a lot of Raccie muse. It’s changeable. ELEVEN ( DREAM JOB ):  There’s still a tiny part of my heart that desperately wants to be an actress. I’d also like to be an author, which is much closer to my grasp. TWELVE ( MEANING BEHIND YOUR URL ):   I had a feud with an old partner about how all my characters are mortal (they played a lot of gods/ancients and it didn’t mesh well) so I’ve thought of my collection as a “mortal menagerie” for a while.

Tag Game

Rules: Tag ten mutuals you want to know better.

@styloff​ I looooove you (and so does Gibby!)

Name: Julie

Star sign: Scorpio (who’s surprised?)

Height: 5′5

Put your iTunes (or Spotify) on shuffle. What are the first 4 songs that popped up?

1.- You Don’t Own Me remix -- Grace (which I don’t ever remember downloading)

2.- Too Close -- Alex Clare

3.- Opposite of Adults -- Chiddy Bang

4.- We Found Love (feat. Calvin Harris) -- Rihanna

Ever had a poem or song written about you?

I’ve told this story before but...

Roses are red

Like Heckle and Jeckyl

When I look at you 

I see one big freckle

(written by my very first boyfriend after I broke up with him...the day after Valentine’s Day)

When was the last time you played guitar?

Never?

Who is your celebrity crush?

I have lots of them, but most recently Jay Ellis (#lawrencehive)

What’s a sound you hate + a sound you love?

I HATE ALL MOUTH NOISES. (Misophonia is real!)

Rain falling on a roof or windshield; baby/toddler giggles; a popping cork

Do you believe in ghosts?

I believe in 👻👻

How about aliens?

I believe in Harry Styles, so yes. (Thanks for summing this up, M. And in all seriousness...of course.)

Do you drive?

Yes, but I’m finally getting rid of my car so not often.

What was the last book you read?

Charlotte Walsh Likes to Win

Do you like the smell of gasoline?

Yes

What’s the worst injury you’ve ever had?

I’ve never had a serious injury. So a tie between the busted elbow I got when I was trying to walk our collie on roller skates at age 6 and she saw a squirrel (how did my mom allow this??), or the black eye I gave myself in Colorado slipping on ice (after many drinks) many winters ago.

Do you have any obsessions right now?

While waiting for Harry to return to take over all of my brain...The Teacher’s Pet and a ton of other podcasts; Insecure; peach and burrata salads; catching up on my goodreads goal; my new bedding; hopefully soon fall weather

Do you tend to hold grudges against people who have done you wrong?

I tend to let things build and build and build and then I snap and then I usually feel better. So temporarily?

In a relationship?

Super duper single.

I tag @justharried @holo-styles @helterskelterharry @harrysdimples @lollipop-popsx @cantquitu @opalesquemoonlight @lithographarry @aintreallygood @yessoupy (goodness my activity page is quiet these days!) xox

Intro

You know sometimes I like to challenge myself.

How to Play

This reading challenge consists of 3 sections. Fantasy, Sci-Fi and General for a total of 52 prompts which comes down to about 1 book a week.

 You can do 1, 2 or all 3 sections.

With each section you are allowed 1 Double-Up. Double-Up means you can use 1 book for 2 prompts. Preferred is not to at all but if for some reason you are struggling with time or a prompt you can.

In the general sections you can use both fantasy and sci-fi books but not other genres.

Graphic novels, comics, audiobooks and novella’s are allowed. It is all reading in my book.

Rereads count.

You can move the books around throughout the year if things fit better elsewhere and all.

You can step into this reading challenge at any point. I’m starting it in January 2019 but in reality this is a reading challenge you can fit for yourself in anyway you like. If you want to start in May and end April the year after, that is totally fine.

Graphic

Sign-Up

I don’t know if people want to join me but I would love to interact with each other if you do. You can participate anyway you like, with goodreads, twitter, instagram or your blog. I don’t require a sign-up post but I would appreciate if you boosted this.

If there are a nice group of people we can see if we can do a twitter dm group or an fb group or something to chat with each other on how to fill the prompts. 🙂

The widget won’t go into the post because wp sucks so here is the direct link.

If You Need Inspiration: Find Some Fitting Books Per Prompt Here

I figured some of you might like to have a list of options for each prompt so here we are. I’ve read a portion of these, others are on my own TBR and others I just know fit with the prompt. These are in no way meant as real recommendations, just those that fit the prompt. No links because do you see how many books I mention haha.

The Nutty Professor - getting back at Dino

I have a vague memory of going through a 'Jerry Lewis' phase when I was younger, but none of the movies really stand out in my memory other than this one (I also remember us dutifully watching the Labor Day Telethon for a period in our youth, late, late into the night). It didn't take long for his brand of humor to get very stale and seem very juvenile to kids who grew up in the seventies. In this one he plays a buck toothed nebbish of a scientist who comes up with a 'Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde' type drug that he tests on himself, and becomes a suave ladies man, albeit one with a rotten flip side to his personality. Of course, a love triangle ensues with his pretty assistant (Stella Stevens). I've done some reading on this in later years, how it was a sort of catharsis for Lewis after his breakup with Dean Martin, his longtime movie partner, and in fact, his portrayal of the 'suave ladies man' was a sort of caricature of Martin, which reveals a bit more of Lewis' 'dark side' as well.

Was remade in the nineties with Eddie Murphy playing the professor as a huge fat man, but I haven't seen it.

HC - Serena’s storyline

This may seem like an unpopular opinion, but I’ll let folks make up their own minds on the issue, regarding the current Serena storyline. All are valid points/concerns. This ended up being a lot more wordy than I thought when I started writing, so bear with me. :D

1. Part of it was designing a storyline that could take them to a point where they could cover Catherine’s three month sabbatical for the duration of rehearsals and performances of the play she’s doing. There would need to be a significant reason for the character of Serena to require that much time away. It’s not like after Adrianne’s death (which to some extent was expected following repeated strokes and vascular dementia) where she only took a couple of weeks off. They’d already used the idea of a secondment that they’d used with Bernie last fall; it was unlikely that they’d go down that route again. I don’t believe that Simon and crew would have entrusted this kind of storyline with just anyone - they knew that it was something Catherine could dig her teeth into and do it justice, both with sensitivity and gusto. They also knew that Jemma as Bernie would continue to be that unwavering support and love that she has been giving. It’s a tremendously emotional storyline and as much as it pulls at the heartstrings, they want us to want to wrap them both up in swaddling blankets and keep them safe. We’ve become invested in their fictional lives.

2. Which brings me to the next part. If Serena had taken off more time post Ellie’s death, stayed at home longer to grieve, as by all rights she probably should have done, then we’d have had a lot less screen time for Serena. Grief affects people differently and perhaps Serena felt that staying at home all the time to grieve was driving her right up the wall. She has seemed over the past few years that work is her life - perhaps less so with the addition of Jason and Bernie to her life the past year - and so work is her fall-back point; that which she is usually comfortable to rely on. But this loss is quite different to the loss of her mother, or indeed to Arthur’s passing. So, if Serena had taken much more time off now, we’d not have seen how she handled her grief as it would have been done off-screen, and at home.

3. We’re going to have a three month gap of no Serena covering the length of time of Catherine’s sabbatical coming up before we know it; she’s on through some time in April, then off for three months, back mid-end July.

4. Many in the fandom have complained that a lot of the domesticity of Berena (along with other relationships, it has to be noted) is done off-screen. If we didn’t have this pretty accurate portrayal of someone’s grief after such a loss, I suspect there would be (and rightly so) many more complaints of ‘off-screen’ coverage of Serena’s loss, why didn’t we see more of what she was going through. It’s kind of a hard balance to maintain. So, whilst it is incredibly sad, and at times painful to watch, this is something we are seeing played out very well. Grief can be and often is uncomfortable to watch others go through, either in fiction or in real life.

5. Unlike shows like Greys Anatomy, where probably a quarter of storylines can be shown away from the hospital or bar (i.e.. the doctor’s homes), neither Casualty nor Holby City do that. It’s very much a rarity to show scenes away from hospital grounds/Albies. We did briefly see a bit of domesticity of Dom & Isaac at home - which as we can tell now was a precursor to how 'nice’ Isaac was at the beginning and to establish how Jeckyl & Hyde his personality has been ever since. 

6. External sets: part of this could be budgeting (actually it’s more than likely a factor in comparison). Greys is now into its 13th season, and has about 24 episodes per season. Casualty, in it’s 31st season has 43-49 episodes per series, Holby City in its 19th series with 52 eps per series. They’re quite possibly limited to what kind/how many 'external’ (to hospital) sets they can re-use/repurpose.

There’s probably more to be said, but I think that’s it for now.

what are the killers?

This one I can answer better for this verse-

Danny's can be found here [link], but tl;dr half demon called a dream eater, nocturnal and feeds on humans and he looks like this when he's not concealing how he actually looks [link]

Every member of the legion can be found here [link] tl;dr Franks a werewolf, Julie's a vampire, Susie's a siren and Joey's a demon

Aldiris is a plague witch, but a well loved member of the local church

Anna is literally called a Russian version of a werewolf which is essentially a demonic werewolf in her archives, so easy werewolf half demon

Ji-woon is a snake person, super venomous, but extremely pretty and has that long ass snake body usually adorned in jewelry

Rin and Sally are obviously ghosts

Michael's human, but can still absolutely wreck any monsters shit

Lisa is a nature witch

Max is human, just deformed

Bubba's human

I shouldn't even have to say what Freddy is

Amanda's human

Trapper's a wereowlf

Wraith is human, but the bell still holds a lot of spiritual properties

Kazan's- Kazan.... he's the big beefy demon we all love

Demo's, Demo

Caleb is a ghost cowboy, he can will still wreck your shit

Ph is ph

Talbot's jus how I personally headcannon him, he only changes into the blight when he injects himself with it because we love a good dr. jeckyll and mr hyde dynamic here

Victor and Charlotte are half demons to justify how fckin rabid Victor is

Doctor's an electric demon hired by the cia to do mk ultra bullshit as usual

Jeffrey is a human, but everyone thinks he’s a demon

And I think that's everyone, but Nemesis who is obvious

[sstarcry]

“Thanks Frankie...

You give great hugs by the way...”

Jeckyl burrys his head is Frank’s chest and mumbles

“I just don’t know how to say that I have feelings for you”

Fuck David and Nea, I’m tired of being blinded and taunted. Can I get a hug Frankie~? I just kinda wanna unwind after that ridiculous trial. Especially after Lori stabbed me in the back. That shit hurted... *grabby hands bc he is short*

Frank sighs in amusement and holds his arms open. 

“c’mere.”
